什么是 RVBoards 开源软件生态？

  • RVBoards 开源软件生态的目标是为 RISC-V 体系提供可靠的、高性能的、可持续发展的开源基础软件和建设开发者社区。
  • RVBoards 开源基础软件主要包括三部分：RISC-V Computing Library（简称 RVCL), OS kernel, AI platform。
  • RVBoards 开源软件将努力获得行业的广泛认可，发展成为 RISC-V 行业统一的开源软件生态。

什么是 RVBoards？

  • 是采用 RVBoards 开源基础软件的所有 RISC-V 板级硬件系统的统称。
  • 我们并不制定任何板级硬件技术标准，只是赋能 RISC-V Boards。
  • 我们鼓励芯片公司 / 方案公司 / 制造商研发与生产各种 RISC-V 开源硬件，在获得基础软件授权后冠以 RVBoards 名称，也欢迎通过 RVBoards 生态进行推广、销售。
